Principal Bruce Wardell Inducted into AIA College of Fellows
Congratulations to Bruce Wardell on the AIA’s highest membership honor!
“AIA Fellows are recognized for their exceptional work and contributions to architecture and society. Founded in 1952, the AIA College of Fellows seeks to stimulate a sharing of interests among Fellows, promote the purposes of AIA, advance the profession of architecture, mentor young architects, and be of ever-increasing service to society. Less than 3% of AIA members hold the prestigious FAIA designation.”
BRW staff attended the AIA Investiture Ceremony at the historic Warner Theater in Washington DC, where Bruce was inducted into the College of Fellows.
“Bruce Wardell changes what people expect from architects by reversing historical power relationships in underserved communities; challenging architects to turn civic values into action; and amplifying the impact of nonprofits and ministries through design.”
“Bruce’s work provides an important model for challenging normative power structures in community development. ...The design process for the Southwood Trailer Park is groundbreaking.”
